Here to Help You Heal
As an experienced mental health professional, my passion lies in exploring and processing trauma, as well as in improving interpersonal understanding and communication. I take a present-focused, strengths-based, and relational therapeutic approach to care, guiding you toward the lasting healing you deserve.
Having trained at the VA, I have worked with patients with a variety of diagnoses, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, and PTSD. My specialties also include family issues, gender and sexuality topics, OCD, life transitions, and stress management.
My Approach to Care
I believe that trust is the cornerstone of therapy. As such, our time in the therapy room is tailored together, collaboratively, so you feel comfortable, seen, and heard in our work. Using a combination of talk therapy, motivational interviewing, elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectal Behavior Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, and Gestalt, among others, I seek to meet the goals you and I set together. This will often involve building self-awareness, self-esteem, and understanding of thought patterns.
